Tired of the Patriarchal Nonsense | Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon

Suddenly this whole show seems to be centering around the main male lead. ASR is a relationship, ASR cheating, ASR unable to decide, so he should decide, because ya know women are brainless and need a MAN to make ALL the decisions. 😕 Why in the world is everything being left up to him? Will the women all faint and fade away if he doesn't sit, stand, talk, walk, push, shove, explain, lust, love, pehnao payal, say what the what the and make a bad decision to marry? Or will they all continue to aimlessly wander around his house from one pooja to the next till God in heaven yells down at them in frustration?

Nonsense! Where is La's backbone? Where is Angali's brain? Why is KKG's brain not working? Is Nani a genius or suffering from bi-polar disorder? Why is Mami not stirring up more crap? Or has she killed Mamaji and buried him in the garden? Does Payal like her constant shy/thoughtful/worried look?

Phew... Needed to get that out, thanks. 😆

Good questions asked. Questions to which I don't, though I wish, have the answers to myself 😆.

I just realised after reeading your post how mamaji has been majorly MIA. Totally forgot about him...like there's even anything to remember since we never notice his presence anyway.

Looks like mami has finally said hello hi bye bye to her husband! 😆

Back to your topic, it seems like the women in this show have their own share of disorders. La's back problem, nani's mood swings, mami's nautanki, anjali's blind faith on any living creature.

A man's gotta be a man?

It's quite sad to see women like Anjali being portrayed in shows, especially since women nowadays are so strong and independent no matter what their disabilities are. I hope to see her character grow stronger and not fade away weakly into the background. Payal too.

Great post!!! About where the thinking power of all the women in the serial is:-- It's with the CVs and the director and the viewers...this is how CVs are charaterizing Khushi, Anjali and Arnav, Nani & Buaji...this is what the viewers like to see...romance ke naam pe anything...we all enjoy watching all the lovey dovey moments but sometimes it's tooo much of nonsense...not even once has the stupid Buaji asked Shyam about his family (she did once loong time back)...there are sooo many things that need to be questioned but that's not going to happen coz this is IPKKND!!! We need to shut down our thinking brains and watch this...

well said headoverheels everything shouldn't be blame on ASR it's not his fault he is just trying to realize his love for khushi yet he doesn't understand whether it's love or attraction it's happening for the 1st time he needs time to realize guyz... we don't have to put the blame on him according to his character he is portrayed that way where he doesn't believe in love but meeting khushi he tries to realize the feeling.. so guyz take a chill pill and watch the show... no hard feelings for any1 love u all...

Agreed...i don't get why all the chicks in the Ipk are so non reacting..i mean wat the hell why does it all come down to ASR??

starting of with la why can't she tell that her so called boyfriend is not interested in her and its time she confronts him or steps out of his life..

Nani is so illogical i tell u..i have given up on her...

Anjali can't tell her husband is behind another woman..this is just ridiculous..can't she put 2 and 2 together??

As for Khushi i m frustrated in her for not realising wat is dead obvious to us..seriously, the guy likes u, u can see it in his eyes...but with her it's justified cause she is trying to overlook the fact due to La's presence in ASR's life...but after today's epi i seriously expect Khushi to take a stand and decide wat she needs to do..!!

Exactly!! A confused male character is a big fat NO. But, a confused female character is, just a poor little thing? He needs to do this right and that right, why? Because he's a man? Who the hell appointed men the authority on anything, specially in relationships? 😆 He's as new to this whole "love" feeling as the next person. In fact MUCH more new to it than KKG, who has spent her whole life loving everyone no matter what their flaws are. ASR only loves his sister. He wouldn't know love if it stumbled across a catwalk and fell into his arms... 😉

They can only write for the men - and that too not too much, Barun hardly gets lines, its all in his looks. It bothers me ridiculously that all the women are be written for as if they are caricatures.

If they can create an ASR, then they can turn the equation around and make ASR a woman raging against the world. But, it's SP and their audience is more comfortable seeing Gopi Vahu and her neverending attempt to make perfectly round rotis. 🤢
